Description
ESS is deploying a number of different arc detector systems to protect the RF and distribution systems. ESS are currently installing and testing three different systems. The initial installation and early batches were based on commercial systems but we will also present the test results, motivation and performance parameters of the more recent arc detectors constructed at ESS. Early high power operation highlighted a need for additional protection due to blind spots. We will present the results of a sound based arc detection system used to identify the location of arcing in longer waveguide runs and our thoughts on how to improve the protection in a cost effective way.
